July 12, 2005Hello everyone! This is our very first entry! I just thought this would be a good idea for us to stay connected with friends and family! And a way for me to show off pictures of my beautiful baby!! This is Gabriel on this John Deere "Buck". He is going to be one year old on the 22nd...I can't believe it! It seems like just yesterday we were handed this seven-pound brand new wonderful bundle of joy!Here's a quick update on our family these days...I'm still staying at home with Gabe and Nick continues working for the Air Force in Finance. Nick is currently taking classes at home towards his bachelor's degree. He would like to be commissioned as an officer! I am 21 weeks pregnant with BOY #2, and excited as ever. We are going to name this one Michael...the second angel God has blessed us with! Gabriel is learning and growing more everyday! He is walking, climbing, and stepping all over the place. He is a very active little boy with a VERY healthy appetite. I don't think there is one food we have given him that he hasn't liked! Gabe has now learned how to climb DOWN the stairs by himself, he conquered climbing up them all by himself a couple weeks ago. He loves to go up and down, back and forth from mommy to daddy. We are having his big birthday bash on July 23 at my Mom and Dad's!Well, that's a quick view...I will hopefully write in here often to keep everyone updated! Have a great day!~Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.~ Psalm 127:3

Nick, Aneesa and Gabe, I'm so glad he ahd a good time at his b-day party! Looks like he really enjoyed the cake. When are you going to get the swingset that Stony and i bought put up? Hope that Joe gets to help you before they PSC? Aneesa remember we aren't in the service, we don't know what that means. Congrats to Susie. Where at in Co? Is Deke a senior? We wish that we could have come down as planed but now we have decided to wait until Michael is born so we can meet them both. Yes Aneesa you will have your hands full, but it goes by in the blink of an eye. Show us some pics of you pregnant, remember we haven't seen you pregnant. Love Mom and Stony
